Simpler Living, Compassionate Life: A Christian Perspective is a rich collection of voices that bring clarity to the confusion between our society's ideal of the material "good life" with the "abundant life, " modeled after the person of Jesus, the things he taught, and the way he lived. It invites us to re-examine and rearrange our lives, to sweep away the "clutter" that keeps us from contact with the world, with God, with our own souls. It provides further images of the abundant life and suggests ways of moving toward it personally and culturally. It shares practical suggestions that cover topics such as personal consumer choices and service projects to reinvigorating community life and traditional celebrations.Whether reading through it alone or using the insightful study guide with a group, Simpler Living, Compassionate Life invites you into the dialogue.

On its ten-year anniversary of publication, we are pleased to re-issue this popular title. Editor Michael Schut presents a rare collection of voices ― Henri Nouwen, Cecile Andrews, Richard Foster and others ― as they explore our use of money, the practice of simplicity, listening to our lives, widening our circle of community, and other topics at the core of how we live out our faith in our homes and workplaces. A study guide is included.

This landmark book celebrates a rich and time-honored tradition in American architecture: the vernacular farmhouse. And nowhere in America is this tradition more evocative and venerable than in New York and New England, where Dutch, English, French, and Scotch settlers created an extraordinary legacy of simple one- and two-story structures dating from the seventeenth century.The houses portrayed here -- forthright, sturdy, and built by carpenters and masons rather than architects -- stand as enduring tributes to pragmatic, handcrafted design and the resourceful use of local, natural materials. They also stand as cherished, comfort-giving homes to current generations of owners, many of whom have sensitively adapted them for life in the twenty-first century.With striking color photography by Trevor Tondro and insightful text by William Morgan, this book documents 19 outstanding examples of this folk idiom. The structures featured here were built over the course of a century of American history, with each property expressing its own personality through regional traditions, period styles, building materials, and the imprint of caretakers past and present. While the style of these farmhouses show wonderful diversity, they are all eloquent meditations on a common theme: the intrinsic beauty and value of that which is old and true.A Simpler Way of Life is a book for architects, designers, historians, preservationists, and anyone who wishes to learn more about this classic American genre. This volume is a compelling reminder that the old, honest country house is not only as inviting and beautiful as the grandest of homes, but is endowed with a grace and humanity unmatched by any other form of domestic architecture.

Excerpt from The Simpler Natural BasesBy a more or less arbitrary delimitation of the subject matter, involving for instance the total exclusion of purine bases, I have aimed at giving, in the space at my disposal, a somewhat detailed account of the chemistry of the bases dealt with, and of their derivatives. Some, like the amines and adrenaline, are remarkable on account of their physiological action, and in each case, therefore, a brief description of this action has been added. In this way I have endeavoured to make the mono graph also of interest to those who are concerned with the biological rather than with the chemical aspect of the subject.A brief chapter on the practical methods used in the isolation Of the simple bases has been added, and special attention has been given. To the bibliography which extends to the autumn of 1913.It is a pleasant duty to express my great indebtedness to Dr. H. H. Dale, without whose advice and criticism much of the pharmacological sections would have remained unwritten.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book celebrates one of the richest and most enduring themes in American architecture—California's Arts and Crafts Movement. Echoing the writings of Helen Hunt Jackson, Charles F. Lummis, and Charles Keeler, this movement represented a retreat into a quieter place from the materialism of American society. Anti-commercial, anti-modern, Arts and Crafts practitioners drew on the decorative schemes of English Tudor, Swiss chalet, Japanese temple, and Spanish mission, evoking an earlier time before modern industry and technology intruded. And if only one word is used to describe virtually every Arts and Crafts house in California, that word is "woodsy": wood shingles outside, wood paneling inside, a wood fire burning in the homey, welcoming fireplace.Most chapters in this impressive and very readable book focus on one building by a particular architect or designer and illustrate that person's development and influences. Familiar architects such as Bernard Maybeck, Charles and Henry Greene, John Galen Howard, and Julia Morgan are here, but so too are less well-known names who were a vibrant part of the Arts and Crafts Movement. These late Romantics designed houses to complement nature rather than contrast with it. Their eclecticism and historicism reflected a Romantic bent as well, no doubt cultivated by their familiarity with the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where, in fact, Howard, Maybeck, and Morgan studied.The book's contributors also give attention to the builders, contractors, and craftsmen whose skills contributed to the lasting impact of the California Arts and Crafts Movement. Superb illustrations provide examples of elevations, composition details, interior fixtures, and gardens, all designed to promote the "simple living and high thinking" of the Craftsman style, an esthetic that continues to influence architecture today.

ABOUT THE AUTHORS......JOHN JACOBS was a top tournament professional who later almost single-handedly created the present European golf tour. He is also a renowned telecaster on the game, but his greatest claim to fame is as a teacher. "Doctor Golf," as Jacobs is known around the world, is the number-one golf instructor in Europe, and is becoming ever more highly regarded in the U.S.A. where he operates a growing number of golf schools each year. Practical Golf-the all-time best selling golf instruction in Great Britian--is the distillation of this master teacher's knowledge, drawn from his work with all grades of golfer from Jack Nicklaus down to the raw beginner. KEN BOWDEN was the foundling editor of Golf World (U.K.) and editorial director of Golf Digest. A low-handicap player, since 1972 he has managed the communications activities of Jack Nicklaus, with whom he has written seven books. ANTHONY RAVIELLI is one of the finest artists ever to illustrate golf. A frequent contributor to Golf Digest, he has illustrated books by, among others, Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan and Bryon Nelson. His ability to depict the key elements of golf technique in a way that no photographer can do adds mightily to the instructional value of this exceptional book.

"If 'in adversity is hidden opportunity' then lurking around the corner must be the Mother of All Great Chances." With our environment on its knees, our great myths and cities crumbling, Ferenc Máté argues in this passionate, darkly funny book that now is the time to begin our lives anew, on a more human scale. With our lust for mechanized "progress" we have damaged and endangered not only our planet but also our communities, families, and even friendships. He warns that our environmental movement by itself is as effective as "trying to stop a freight-train with a feather." He argues for fundamental change--by each of us. We must place simple human needs and the human spirit far ahead of material wealth. We must rethink our concepts of career, home life, habits, and what we call security and success. And we must resurrect our foundations: the small town, the family, and a dignified caring self. Only then will our earth become the paradise we once had and mistakenly took for granted.
